Fast, full eaters may weigh more

"Looking to lose some extra weight? Eating more slowly and stopping before you're full might help. A new study shows that fast eaters who eat until they're full may be three times more likely to be overweight than slow eaters who stop eating before they're full. That study appears in BMJ, formerly called the British Medical Journal. Nearly 3,300 Japanese adults took part. They reported how quickly they eat and whether they usually eat until they're full -- and they got their height and weight measured." - WebMD
